After tricking you by having your team film another film team's script, you now have the opportunity to
re-master your storyboard and shoot your own storyboard. Learn from the mistakes that we all made in the last
step. For example, add more detail to your storyboard so it is more clear and easy to follow. Be sure
to write stage directions that help the director understand how you want to convey your message.
1. Shoot the Door Scene again, this time from your own storyboards, using in-camera edits and
the same parameters as in previous steps. Consider the changes and feedback you discussed
in the previous step, and revise your original storyboards to reflect your intentions for the scene.
2. Shoot your film in your teams
3. Import your video footage into a desktop digital video editing system. Trim away the unwanted
material (i.e. false starts and stops, mistakes), and assemble the sequence of shots in order of
your storyboards into a rough cut of your film without transitions, effects, music or titles.
Things to Think About:
• Does the film communicate what you intended?
• Does it clearly tell a story? What is unclear?
• Have you “built” the scene? Is there anticipation? Tension? Conflict?
• What would you change? Why?
Film Evaluation:
Watch your project's film and one other group's film (Mr. Montagne will assign another group's film to you)
Watch and discuss the edit with your group-do this as a group.
The following will be done individually on your portfolio page directly under your movie project:
Does the final version conform to the original assignment parameters, time limitations, special requirements, etc.?
Did you address your peers’ suggestions from the rough edit? Is your film better? Why or why not?
How does the addition of things like music, transitions and effects help tell your story?
